And taking your life as a whole, with all your innumerable choices, all your life long you are slowly turning this central thing either into a heavenly creature or a hellish creature: either into a creature that is harmony with God, and with other creatures, and with itself, or else into one that is in a state of war and hatred with God, and with its fellow-creatures, and with God. C.s. Lewis
About This Quote

When you are in control of your own life, when you are in charge of your own destiny, you are free to make the greatest choices. You are in control of your own actions. These choices will either bring about harmony or create hatred.
